What to expect



Your first consultation is an assessment and will be between forty-five minutes and one hour. We will talk with you about the centre and how we can help and find out what you hope to gain from coming to us.
We will then conduct a thorough medical assessment, understanding the history of your pain by asking you questions about work, family, psychological history etc. We will then better understand you and the impact of your pain and be able to develop a comprehensive treatment plan for you.
At the end of the assessment your we will make some recommendations which may involve some initial medication treatment. After the first session we will write a letter to the person that referred you to us.
